These pictures go back three years, yet the moments are as present as if I were there today!
ReplyDeleteTime is really playing hide and seek with me these days, I sincerely hope to find a bit again soon!
A wonderful start into the week to all of you,
Merisi
Beautifully put, time is playing hide & seek with you... I know that feeling intimately & hope you find some soon again, too :)
ReplyDeleteThese photos are all beautiful! I love the one with the stairs... Stairs are so promising, for some reason - evocative!
And the one with the persimmon for its exquisite orangeness :) I love it with the red leaves - gorgeous happy colours! & clicking through to the Tuscan Autumn sun... I want a holiday!! xx
Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteregarding your question about the figures in the previous post: I tried to answer, but could not find all the pertinent facts. True is that these are copper statues, the clock is part of a "bridge" that connects two buildings. Information about the Anker Clock abound, yet I could not figure out which historical figure I caught in those pictures. Hope to come up with more soon!
Beautiful photos Merisi. Lots of memories. xx
ReplyDeleteYes, Jill, enough warm memories to tidy me over the grey days! :-)
ReplyDeleteJetzt habe ich auch Fernweh :-)

ReplyDeleteI think you should live in Italy.

PS
ReplyDeleteWHERE is the Gelato????
No Italy without gelato :(
Thank you all! :-)
ReplyDelete© Carol,
imagine, I forgot, literally, to get a gelato while in Florence two weeks ago. :-(
Your posts always take on wonderful voyages. Italy is always an enchanting destination.
ReplyDeleteMy dream, my most beautiful dream would be to travel the Tuscany area of Italy and then Provence, France, yet I can no longer fly and that is a very long way from home, so your blog can help me visit the area for now~

ReplyDeleteI could totally live in Italy. Bella.
